I can't get into the forum so I'll post my sightings here.

So glad to see that others are also spending this wonderful birding day peering outside.   I've been thrilled to have 20 species in my yard for the past two days.  That is (or rather was) a single day yard record.  Today has topped that with 23 species so far.

My best is the little yellow-rumped warbler (myrtle) I mentioned a couple of days ago.  This is his third day in the yard as he picks around the snow with all the juncos and sparrows.  Here is todays list so far........

Whoops!!!  Just saw #24 Can the Grackles be far behind?

1. Juncos (just saw one with pure white tail feathers)....about 18
2. Blue jays...4
3. Red-bellied woodpecker...2
4.  Goldfinches...about 30
5. Starlings...2 dozen
6. Brown-headed cowbirds...way too many
7.  White-breasted nuthatches...2
8.  Carolina chickadees...2
9.  Caroline wrens...2
10. American crows...4
11. Cardinals....7
12.  Mourning Doves...7
13.  White-throated Sparrow...1
14.  Downy woodpecker...2
